Pat Bev to Michelle Roberts: "I pay your salary"

Michele Roberts, the executive director of the players union, asked to have the floor to speak about the financial ramifications of leaving Orlando.
While she was going over the numbers, Clippers guard Patrick Beverley abruptly interrupted her, saying he disagreed with her logic, sources said. Roberts kindly reiterated that these were potential losses the players would suffer, and Beverley interrupted again.
Roberts asked politely if she could continue with her point, and Beverley responded, “No, I pay your salary,” sources said.
This caused an uproar with Paul, Haslem and others, who intervened and told Beverley that disrespect would not be tolerated, sources said.

Boy if this isn’t a microcosm of Democrats in America.
We disagree, so you can’t talk.

Anyone here think Pat Bev can comprehend a profit/loss statement?

Can the owners say this to the players?

I like how they think they’re fighting for equal rights and he’s trampling over women’s rights

Further proof that Chris Paul is a legit good guy.

On the call, James was stern in calling on owners to do more in aiding the Black community and to play more of a role in using their resources to combat systemic racism, sources said.
So in typical Democrat fashion, it’s up to someone else to get something done. LeBron wasn’t in this meeting urging all of his fellow players to get out in the communities and make a difference. He’s strong arming the owners to throw money at a problem that can’t be fixed by throwing money at it. All of these “social programs” are just fronts for the organizers to steal money and/or give all of the money back to Democrat politicians. They don’t do a damn thing to help the Black community.
If the players we truly upset about what happened to Jacob Blake they would be spreading the word to their community to quit getting high on drugs, quit acting criminally to where the cops have to detain you, and most important, quit fighting with the cops when they arrive.
But instead you get gaslighting our of people like Doc Rivers. Doc has for years been told by his Black community that he really isn’t one of them. Doc hasn’t lived within the Black community since he was a high schooler. He made his NBA salary, moved into the rich, white neighborhoods, married a while woman, sent his kids to rich kid private schools while they continued their playing careers at places like Duke and Indiana. So now that Doc has all this guilt built up inside of him, he’s ready to show out for the Black community and he gives his little speech. Much like the mixer race Colin Kaepernick and Barack Obama decided to show how down they were with the a Black community, Doc took this as his time to gain acceptance from the hood.
Back to the original point, the players themselves, who identify themselves as part of a group that they are connected to only by their skin color, what other connection do they have with a Jacob Blake, need to work to promote change within their owns communities and not demand others change what they are doing in response to the lawlessness that Black community is displaying themselves.

Let’s go over their resumés should they need employment:
Michele Roberts:
JD from Cal Berkeley
Adjunct professor at Harvard Law
Patrick Beverly:
Spent 2 years at Arkansas before...
“ In August 2008, Beverley was deemed ineligible to play in the 2008–09 season due to academic issues.[6] Dispelling speculation that insufficient grades were to blame, Beverley admitted that he had been suspended because of an academic integrity issue on a class paper.[7]”
Now, if the NBA were to cease, which one would be more employable? Mr. Beverley, you need the NBA more than Ms. Roberts.

The protest was in response to the shooting of Jacob Blake, a 29-year-old Black man who was shot in the back multiple times on Sunday by police in Kenosha, Wisconsin, as he tried to get into his vehicle. The incident was captured on video. His three sons — ages 3, 5, and 8 — were in the vehicle during the incident, his family’s attorney said. Blake remains hospitalized.
Sure. That’s what happened. Lol media in this country doing everything possible to create instability. Do these people really think they will be spared by the communist regime?

Damn, that’s annoying, scumbag behavior even by Pat Bev standards

The about face they all pulled once it was broken down how it would affect their pockets directly is absolutely hysterical.

That’s what I thought. Imagine an owner saying this to a player.
